Campbell Law SBA to Hold Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service

RALEIGH, N.C. –The Campbell Law School Student Bar Association (SBA) will host a day of community service activities on Monday, Jan. 21 during observance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. Campbell Law students, who do not attend classes in observance of the federal holiday in King’s honor, will serve the Raleigh community at a trio of locations.

"There is a real culture of service at Campbell Law, and the members of our academic community continually demonstrate a strong commitment to public service,” said SBA Service Committee Chair Brian Lawler. “One of the best ways we can honor the memory and work of Dr. King is to give back in the service of others.”

Campbell Law students will help prepare and serve food to the homeless at the Good Shepherd Soup Kitchen, assist with thrift store donations at the Salvation Army Family Store, and help package meals for those in need at the Alexander Family YMCA.
